Q&A

Author Mikio Ikemoto Unravels Mysteries of the Shinobi World!

Boruto feels their teacher-student bond far more keenly after Sasuke goes rogue from the village with him. Boruto is the type to act on his thoughts, and switches to calling him "Master" the very next day. At first, Sasuke isn't too fond of the title change, but he can't deny that it is, in fact, true, so he eventually grows used to and accepts it.


I wanted to do something to indicate that they're a bit out of place in the world of Naruto and Boruto, and also represent how beyond everyone's understanding of reality their abilities are. That's why I decided that an "outer space" theme suited them.


Well, Himawari inherited both the Uzumaki and Hyuga clans' blood, and those factors have a synergetic effect with Kurama's chakra. It's more like he sensed the enormity of that potential within her.


That was actually due to Momoshiki, who has the ability to see pieces of the future surrounding himself. It does resemble Prescience in a way, but it's not an established Shinjutsu, and only has a portion of Prescience's functionality.


The book he's holding is actually a notebook of his own. He records various discoveries, things that catch his interest, questions, and observations about human interactions in there on a day-to-day basis. He considers it an important tool that allows him to organize the exponentially growing amount of information he absorbs each day.


At her own request, she's been allowed to stay alone at the Uzumaki house. She feels strongly that her parents will return, and so is keeping up with the housework there as part of making sure they have a home to return to.


He started off preferring chocolate, but it wasn't long till he realized that nothing beats chunky red bean jam.


Everyone curates a "face" for society to some extent. We adapt in order to function socially in various settings, but the Divine Tree people have just newly awoken to self-consciousness and haven't learned to do that yet, so they're merely reflecting their base models. If they come off differently from their base models, it may actually mean that the Divine Tree person is the one showing the "true" face of their original.


Ever since that day, she's noticed that the Hokage's son (Kawaki) has suddenly become very attractive. And since Boruto has matured in many ways by the time he returns to the village three years later, her impression regarding him seems to be, "He's as handsome as ever".


Boruto and Sasuke mainly ate fish caught in rivers or the sea, and wild birds (hunted using Lightning Style or shuriken, which also doubled as training). They'd also occasionally forage for wild plants and mushrooms. It appears their primary methods of cooking were either boiling or grilling.


He actually does. However, while Jiraiya was an open and unapologetic pervert, Koji Kashin keeps that side of himself hidden. As long as other people are around, he's not the type to let it show. Even when alone, he remains wary of Eida's clairvoyance, so he's unlikely to ever slip up.


Apologies if this isn't much of an answer, but that's something I'd rather keep secret for now. I don't want to expose the readers to my personal biases, and my feelings often change depending on how the story develops. Once everything wraps up, I think it might be fun to reveal my personal rankings if the opportunity arises. Since that's not much of an answer by itself, I'll at least reveal that the hardest characters to draw for me lately have been Kawaki and Cho-cho, while the easiest tend to be middle-aged men and elderly characters.


Sumire, who was also unaffected by Omnipotence, deliberately kept a low profile to avoid drawing attention to herself, but Sarada continued to unrepentedly state the truth to those around her. To make matters worse, since her father Sasuke had left the village along with Boruto, she was likely treated pretty harshly by others. It's easy to imagine her family's home being vandalized with graffiti or her becoming the target of slander and abuse. After all, even before Omnipotence rewrote everyone's memories, there were plenty of people in the village who already viewed Sasuke unfavorably. It was probably quite hard on her mother Sakura as well, but just like Sasuke she remained firmly on Sarada's side.


After Omnipotence, Himawari worried about Boruto and reached out to Sarada for advice, knowing she was on his side. However, given Sarada's position in Konoha—as I mentioned earlier—the Ino-Shika-Cho trio intervened out of worry, urging Himawari to keep some distance from Sarada. As she spent more time with Team Ten, she started training as a shinobi alongside them with the hope of being able to help Boruto one day.


He only became aware of his feelings recently, likely as a result of the increased time they spent together through training and missions. Himawari is the sort of powerful and spirited personality that can manage an entire household alone, making her come across as more mature than her actual age. It was those qualities that first earned Inojin's deep respect, which gradually developed into something more profound.


They generally grow to be around the same size as the human they're based on. However, there are some outliers among the Claw Grimes that are quite physically imposing, and those have the potential to grow even bigger than their original selves.
